Chapter 351 Running Twenty Laps
Chapter 351 Running Twenty Laps
The familiar woman who was standing next to the manager was no other than Bonnie.
She stood with a work card which stated "Assistant to the President" hanging on her neck.
While walking into the department, Carla thought, 'Since when did she become an assistant to the
president?
And even if she is the assistant to the president, what is she doing here in the Sales Department in
such an hour?'
The Sales Department was divided into several groups, with an average of about ten people in each
group. The company conducted spot checks on everyone's performance every month, especially for
new salesmen. They could only stay in the Sales Department if they passed the check.
"The sales performance of your group has declined recently. Thus, Mr. Noah sends his assistant to
supervise our department. I hope for you to do your best this month. The management team needs to
see improvements,"
said the sales manager as he began the spot checks. That explained why Bonnie was here, though it
might be an excuse.
Carla stood at the end because she was the last to enter this department. While waiting, she took the
opportunity to scan through the product introduction in her hand and try to memorize more.
However, it surprised her that someone was already standing in front of her even before she got a
glimpse of the folder.
Bonnie immediately took the recitation materials from Carla's hand and deliberately raised her work
card. She said, "Carla Ji, let me check and ask you!"
Raising her eyebrow slightly, Carla walked out of the crowd and stood before Bonnie.
She had already guessed that Bonnie intended to humiliate her the moment she saw Bonnie earlier.
This thing going on now was just a confirmation of her thoughts.
This was just a small check so everyone only had several questions to answer. However, Bonnie asked
her all the key contents listed on the materials.
It was good that Carla put a lot of effort into memorizing these things in the past several days. Thus,
she didn't find answering Bonnie's questions was difficult at all.
Bonnie felt anxious upon seeing Carla swiftly going through the questions. So she deliberately chose
some questions which were less important and employees would naturally pay less attention to.
However, Carla was able to get the points of these questions too. Then, Bonnie picked questions that
even the experienced salesman could not recite completely.
Carla was just a human being after all and not a machine. To make things worse, Bonnie even added
complicated questions that were not even listed on Carla's recitation materials.
Naturally, Carla failed to answer her latest questions. Seeing Carla being dumbfounded made Bonnie
secretly grin.
She then threw the very thick recitation materials to Carla and shouted, "Do you still want to work here,
given your very low IQ? You're making me curious about how you even get into the Hua Group!"
Stunned, Carla was speechless for a while. She then touched her arm, which was hit by the recitation
materials, and looked up at Bonnie.
"Don't you know how I got into here?"
she retorted.
Bonnie hummed and circled her. "Wow, really good. Let me remind you that you haven't been here for
a week. How dare you talk back to your superior? You have recited all the rules and regulations but do
you even remember them?"
She then turned to the sales manager and asked, "You are the manager. This newcomer doesn't know
the rules. How should we punish her?"
Rushing over, the sales manager glanced at Carla and said, "Miss Bonnie, according to our usual
practice, we'll require the newcomers to recite these materials and then conduct a small check among
them. They can be given another chance if they reach the level B. If they only reach the C level, we'll
redistribute them to the company's New Employees Training Department for professional training. We
only issue dismissal in serious cases.
It's not easy to train new talents. Thus, we give importance to them once they qualify. We are not
expelling people unless they made a serious mistake."
"Oh? Have you heard what she had recited just now? What level do you think could match her?" asked
Bonnie while looking at the sales manager.
The manager recalled Carla's performance and answered, "This is her first check. I think I'll get her A
level."
Hearing how Carla recited earlier impressed the sales manager greatly. He couldn't believe how she
managed to recite almost all the materials in such a short time.
However, the sales manager immediately saw Bonnie glare at him right after he talked. Thus, he
changed his words quickly.
"I think she's a B..."
The manager glanced at Bonnie one more time and found her still glaring. He had no way but to stutter,
"C...C level! She even dared to talk back to the superior. That was more than enough to show how
unfamiliar she is with the rules and regulations!"
The manager's forehead began to sweat. Working in this company for eight long years made him know
Bonnie. This woman was famous for her arrogance and temper. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Therefore, he had to act as Bonnie's will.
Carla couldn't help but laugh upon hearing how her level changed from A to C. She then shook her
head and smiled. She understood how helpless the manager was as he obviously didn't have any
choice but to submit.
On the other hand, Carla's laughter irritated Bonnie. Thus, she asked, "What are you laughing at? Do
you think that the manager was wrong?" Carla didn't answer her. Thus, Bonnie raised her eyebrows to
the manager instead and said seriously, "I think all that you said was right. However, we here in the
Hua Group have always been kind to our employees. More so, she is a newcomer and it's her first time
to make such mistakes.
I think we can let this slip for now. Nevertheless, make her run twenty laps as her punishment. What do
you think?"
With no power to say no, the manager immediately echoed, "Yes, of course. It's not just a punishment
but also an exercise. That is the advice ever, Miss Bonnie!"
Bonnie walked towards Carla and patted her shoulder. "Why are you still standing there? Go run twenty
laps!
I'm warning you! Don't you dare cheat on me and run just a few laps. I'll be watching you from my
office."
Carla was still standing straight when she glanced at Bonnie sideways. Then she hummed faintly and
started to walk outside.
It hadn't been long since Carla's leg fully recovered. She wouldn't mind walking normally but running
would surely harm her, let alone running twenty laps.
It was more than obvious to Carla that Bonnie was revenging on her!
"Wait!"
Just before Carla got on the elevator, Bonnie chased her and took her cellphone from her pocket. "To
prevent you from asking for help, I will confiscate this cellphone and place it in the Sales Department.
Come back after you finish twenty laps!"
Carla looked at Bonnie, who had been completely eaten by jealousy and anger. Ironically, she
sympathetically said, "Aren't you afraid that Mother's going to feel heartbroken once she learns what
you are doing to me?"
Carla mentioned her mother on purpose. She was certain that Andrea would definitely feel very
disappointed in Bonnie once she knew what Bonnie did to her.
"Don't mention her! She's my mother, not yours!" Bonnie shouted while staring at her. She then
marched angrily to the department with the cellphone in her hand.
Sighing, Carla walked into the elevator.
Upon going out, she walked slowly to the park behind the building. That park was made by the Hua
Group. Apart from being publicly opened, it was also a place for the Hua Group members to do some
exercises.
Carla took her coat off and went straight to the track at the end of the park.
Meanwhile, Noah was staying inside his office located on the top floor of the building.
He was looking at the building model on his computer when he gazed at his watch and thought of
something. He immediately called his secretary in.
"Call the Sales Department and ask if Carla's passed the test," he ordered.
"Yes, Mr. Noah," answered the secretary. She then went out and followed his instructions.
It only took a minute before the secretary walked into his office again.
"Miss Carla didn't pass the test, Mr. Noah," the secretary reported.
"Oh? Why? She reviewed really hard for that. Didn't I order you to tell the sales manager to be lenient
on her? Didn't you do that?" Irritation filled Noah's voice as he frowned at his secretary.
"Yes, I did. However... Miss Bonnie went there as your assistant and deliberately put Miss Carla on a
hot seat. That's why Miss Carla failed to pass the test. What's worse, she is now..."
The secretary intentionally stopped talking before she finished her sentence and pointed to the track
through the window, indicating Noah to look outside.
Noah automatically stood up and looked at where his secretary was pointing. But the track was too far
from his office, so he couldn't see Carla at all. He stretched out his hand to gesture the secretary to
take the telescope to him.
Frowning, he looked through the telescope and found Carla running and exhausted.
"This is nonsense!
Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Noah was utterly mad when he turned back to his secretary.
He knew that Carla's leg just recovered. Thus, she wasn't allowed to exercise that much.
"Since Miss Bonnie is your sister, the manager thought that you sent her on your behalf. It was the
reason why he didn't let her pass as insisted by Miss Bonnie, nor did he report what Miss Bonnie did to
Miss Carla," explained the secretary.
That was it. Noah strode to the door and didn't even bother to wear his coat. He shouted at the
secretary, "Call Bonnie here! Tell her to wait for me in the office!"
